Looking to get into Sonus Faber on a budget... Is it worth it?


I recently visited a showroom in Atlanta and fell in lust with Sonus Faber products, which seems easy to do asthetically and for the sound.

I cant stop thinking about them but largely out of my budget ($2-3k) for new speakers.

My current, modest set up is:
Denon DP47F Turntable (fully restored)
Jolida JD9 Tube Phono Pre Amp with "upgrade 1" package
Jolida JD3502 Tube Amp (integrated - 60x2)
B&W DM604s1 Speakers... They sound good but I dont believe they’re a great match for the amp and lackluster looks

I think I could get into a used pair of Venere 3.0 or Venere S... My question is in your opinion would the upgrade be worth it? I have also been looking into a Primaluna integrated amp in the future but starting with the speakers.

I agree , be patient.  My Dad has a pair of Concertos , Concertinos. Walls, and Solo.    All bought used,  separately , and like new for much less than they sold for. That system still sounds incredible...

Some people are dreamers when selling SF, but if you are lucky you can find them priced right.
